Agios Ioannis beach in Nikiti is one of the most popular choices in Sithonia. With fine pebbles and sand, it is suitable for organized getaways thanks to the beach bars operating during the summer months. The bay offers partial protection from the winds, while its orientation ensures sunshine for most of the day.
The beach faces southeast. With northwesterly winds the air flows offshore and the water near the shore stays flat; with southeasterly winds the sea builds up waves onto the beach. The coast is exposed to the open sea, so conditions change quickly with the wind.
In calm seas yes, but the water gets deep fairly quickly — normal supervision applies.
On days with northwesterly (offshore) winds or no wind at all. Check the live score on Beach Radar before you go — it updates all day.
Yes — sunbeds, umbrellas and food options operate during the summer season.
